Pa. I bid 91 items, won only 37. I was recovering from that, getting a rigger lined up to move the few heavy things, and 2 days later suddenly got an email about a “short notice, cleanup auction” online also, open for only 4 hours. This was for the 3% of items that didn’t get bids two days earlier. Since my rigger’s truck would have lots of space left I put in a few bids in the cleanup and won 4 items, two machine tools and two small lots of tooling and materials. The pictures show a vertical mill, a horizontal mill, a rack of bronze and aluminum, and some misc. tooling. Got the 3.5 ton vertical mill for $12. and the 1-ton horizontal mill for $5. These sound like wonderful bargains until you add in a few $K the rigger will charge me to get them out of the shop and back to my place.</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]136229[/ATTACH]</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]136230[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
